For the days you want more than a class.

Four hours, live on Zoom, with Selena Jones and me. We run our workshops through Wiser Lives, our joint project for people figuring out midlife and beyond.

Heads up for AYS members: workshops go deeper than our daily classes, so they aren't included in your AYS membership. You register and pay for each one separately on Wiser Lives. Anyone can join, member or not.

Beyond the Will workshop
End-of-Life Planning
Beyond the Will

Your will handles the money and the property. Your lawyer handles the legal side. Nobody handles the rest. This is the workshop for the decisions only you can make, so your wishes end up on paper instead of in your head.

Fri, Oct 16 · 11 AM to 3 PM ET
Sat, Feb 27 · 10 AM to 2 PM ET
Live on Zoom · $99

Get It Done Club

The bills. The memoir. The pile in the spare room. One hour a week of quiet company while you finally do the thing. No camera needed, no small talk, and nobody checking your work.

Mondays · 7 to 8 PM ET

Same two faces. A longer, quieter room.

Daily AYS classes are short by design. You move, you laugh, you get on with your day. Some topics need more time than that, and they deserve a room where you can actually think.

Selena and I built Wiser Lives for exactly that. If you've joined us for Life Lately or Wiser Minds, you already know how it feels.

Real hours, real work

Four hours together, with time to reflect, talk, and leave with something done.

Jen and Selena, 50/50

No outside team. Just me and Selena, a former therapist and grief and decluttering coach.

Camera optional

Show up however you can. Nobody gets put on the spot.

Missed one?

Past workshops are available to watch on your own time.

"I've been retired 25 years. I'm glad I did it, it helped me refocus on what's important in life. Even small wins are good."

Bev

"Low-key and unrushed. They have complementary approaches and good rapport. Interesting how things evolve as they interact."
